Gerard Butler, Richard Gere and Jeffrey Dean Morgan: Allure of the Older Guy

“Kissing is a man’s business” – Gerry   (P.S. I love you, character portrayed by Gerard Butler)

ps-i-love-you
P.S. I love you, Gerard Butler and Hillary Swank. A wonderfully funny and sad love story.

Oh my God, how true. Having kissed men and boys, trust me; I know the difference. Boys think they know they

are getting it right and have no concern whether they are pleasing you or not.

Men on the other hand, know that the more you are satisfied, the harder you will work at satisfying them-

it is a win-win situation. It goes for kissing and everything else.

P.S. I should know. I did date a guy 12 years older than me. Was so much fun…

When I heard Gerard Butler‘s character utter the sentence quoted, I was thinking “Hell, you are so right!!!”.

*** Gerard Butler: Oh, Gerard was born in 1969- which makes him a good 15 years older than me.

Gerard, 300 times.

And add the sweetness and romantic qualities of his character, I would embrace that difference. And in the movie, Hillary Swank‘ s Holly meets Gerry when she is college and he is a musician. I guess we are supposed to assume a 10 year difference or something like that.  Whatever. Bring it on!

P-S--I-love-you-Photoshoot-ps-i-love-you-664426_305_400
P.S. I love you photoshoot. Damn, I want Swank's career.

***Richard Gere

Oh well. The name speaks for itself, doesn’t it? Pretty Woman might be fun but the story of a businessman + a hooker = fairy tale??  C’mon.  Seriously.  And I don’t really like his earlier stuff- I find them boring and him looking too neat. But when his hair is scruffy, he is wearing his jeans and just a shirt, he is passionate and a little rebellious, all I can say is Hallelujah!!!

Richard, earlier phases

Ain't maturity grand?

Let’s see more with 3 examples.

*Mr. Jones: The lovely manic-depressive patient. 1993. Richard is 44 years old. Barely looking to be in his mid 30s. Longish hair. Impulsive attitude. No wonder his doctor falls in love with him.

MrJoness
Richard Gere and Lena Olin in Mr. Jones.

*Sommersby: Jack Sommersby comes home 6 years after the war. Right after Jodie Foster shaves the beard, we have an amazing-looking man, who is fun,loyal and loving. Oh boy. Who cares if the guy is 20 years older??? 30??  I want him. (Gere, that is) right here, right now basically.

* Nights in Rodanthe: 2008. Richard is 59. His character has fathered a son played by James Franco. Who do you want? Richard’s character Paul!! He has made mistakes and he is trying to amend them. He meets Diane Lane’s Adrienne. 4 intense days. Totally honest and open. Total attraction and emotional involvement.  I fell in love with Jack.

*** Jeffrey Dean Morgan. 43. Ever since I saw him in Grey’s Anatomy, I want this guy.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan-ALO-020660

Whatever that comes my way really. One night stand, a serious make-out session, marriage, bed buddies…Oh,yes! I was seduced badly. He barely looks 35 and I like a guy who is older and looks younger than he really is. I guess we have already established that. In Grey’s, he was playing a patient who needed a heart transplant. He charmed Doctor Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl) with his good nature, funny self and good looks.

She cared for him so much she risked her career to save him. My relationship with the show is limited with Jeffrey’s appearances as Denny Duquette.

Then came P.S. I love you. Oh when Gerry sends his wife to Ireland with his letters, he is a musician she runs across at a bar. All those good looks and the sexiness of vocals and guitar. Oh,wow!!!

Below;  The Accidental Husband : Silly movie but Jeffrey was there and it was enjoyable. Oh, he played a fire-fighter.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Uma Thurman in The Accidental Husband. The adversary is Colin Firth. The movie isn't great but I sure love the cast.

If you are thinking he only plays the good guy, please see the Watchmen. He is supposedly a superhero but he is more like a psycho in there. He is as good as a villain.

The Accidental Husband: Jeffrey Dean Morgan

So I love Jeffrey Dean Morgan.I have loved him since he played the romantic,emotional and heart-breakingly handsome patient Denny Duquette in Grey’s Anatomy.He came to the show in urgent need for a heart transplant,started sweetly flirting with the beautiful doctor intern Izzy,played by Katherine Heigl. He was sweet and fun,and he just spoke his mind.They fell for each other and it really complicated things for Izzy,since the guy had a risk of dying in every episode he appeared. The chemistry was great.Frankly,I lost all interest in the show after they killed him off.I had liked the show in the beginning,actually. But after Denny came on,no other attempt at romance in the show seemed real or desirable enough for me.He also made the handsome and intense character McDreamy seem more like a troubled and annoying boy,rather than a male that can be called an object of desire.

Well,then he came back in P.S. I love you.

jeffrey dean in p.s. I love you

It was a lovely movie. Gerard Butler was awesome, he did a great job as the beautiful husband (speaking of both the character’s personality and looks) who was unexpectedly lost to a disease,leaving letters and surprises behind to guide his wife through her pain. So when she went to Ireland, and met Jeffrey’s character,it felt so soon for her to move on- after such an amazing marriage,with an amazing guy. Well,she did not move on emotionally but did like him and slept with him. But I really had to forgive her. Hell,  J.Dean looks amazing, in every aspect and he was playing a musician.

The Accidental Husband

The Accidental Husband movie poster, starring Uma Thurman, Colin Firth and Jeffrey Dean Morgan

Uma Thurman is a therapist/psychologist who has a hit radio show on giving relationship advice to women.
Unfortunately for J.D.’s firefighter, his fiancé calls the show and decides to break it off with him,inspired by her. Mad at the “love” doctor, and playing along with his computer whiz young friend,they hack into the registry,change her marital status to married-to J. The prank kinda messes up her plans of marrying her own fiance so she has to find this guy whom she has never heard of but appears to be married to.
Now,of course Dean’s Patrick is everything Colin Firth‘s Richard. Patrick is a spur-of-the-moment,impulsive and a passionate guy.He is also funny and very charming.So it is fun watching him enjoying torturing Uma,while feigning innocence-and then getting into trouble himself when he starts liking her…And of course it becomes more difficult for her to stay away from him..
It is not a great movie.It is just a fun movie. Could’ve been a better one but its silliness works anyway…When u see the neighbors and friends of Patrick, you will see.
But of course it is highly unrealistic and maybe even unfair to cast Jeffrey in such romantic roles.How many guys that gorgeous, can be loyal, romantic and fun? Seriously….
